Happy 6th Birthday, Gibson! To Celebrate, Enter Our Book Giveaway!

The Birthday Boy!
Today is a very special day - it's Gibson's sixth birthday! Wooo! And to celebrate (along with Harley, Wolf, Chloe & Bandit) there will be party hats, presents, and vanilla ice cream cake for the Huskies...and for our supportive friends, followers, and furpals...a drawing for a chance to win a personalized copy of the first book in my FiveSibes™ Tales collection illustrated by the very talented Michelle Littler, What's Wrong With Gibson? Learning About K-9 Epilepsy." All you have to do is complete the Rafflecopter below before January 10 at 12:01 AM! Then we will announce the winner shortly after! What better way to help us celebrate Gibson's special day than by spreading awareness about Canine Epilepsy and the non-profit center Canine Epilepsy Resources?! 

Gibson says, "Good luck in the drawing!"




a Rafflecopter giveaway

I will post pics from Gibson's party with his furfamily at a later date. For now, we hope you'll have fun entering to win his book! We'd love to see a photo of the winning furpal with the book, too, and we'll post it here and on our Facebook page! In the meantime, here's our annual updated Birthday video dating back to when Gibson was just a big fluffy pup! 



Happy Birthday to my big beautiful boy! You had my heart from the very moment we met. 
♥ I love you, Gib! ♥

    Happy Happy Birthday, Gibson!! I'm so sorry I wasn't around to wish you a very happy birthday yesterday, but I wasn't able to (you'll see why starting in tomorrow's post). I hope you had a TERRIFIC day!!

    By the way... not sure if your mommy sent your book out yet -- I haven't had a chance to visit the post office. I will probably go on Monday! Can't wait to receive it! :)

If you've been a FiveSibes follower, you know how important the color of purple is to us, and why Purple Pumpkins are a staple here.If you are new to us here at FiveSibes, I initially joined in the Purple Pumpkin Project because we made our pumpkin purple for my Epi-dog Gibson.

#PrayersForHarley - Dewclaw Tumor

Image
Dewclaws. Such an unnecessary evil for a dog. In August, I noticed Harley limping. At 11-and-a-half, she is a bit stiff-legged at times from arthritis, but this was a more pronounced limp and she was having an extra tough time sitting down. She seemed very uncomfortable. She was also becoming a bit snarley, especially when I was touching her paw, which is something that never typically bothers her. Upon further checking, I noticed an odd lump around her dewclaw on her right leg, thinking it was possibly a pulled dewclaw, maybe a splinter, thistle, or even a bee sting , she became extremely agitated when I touched it.    (Warning: some photos may be somewhat graphic, but I am sharing for educational purposes).   Oddity beneath the dew claw.   Off to the vet we went. At the vet, Harley is protective of her paw by hiding it . Harley's paw was shaved and it uncovered a very large inflamed area surrounding the dewclaw and beyond, as you can see in ...

The Rainbow Bridge Welcomes A New FurAngel - Buddy, the Christmas Husky - A Forever Symbol of Hope for Rescued Dogs

Image
Original photo by and courtesy of Lisa Byrd; modified by FiveSibes The Rainbow Bridge must be some (p)awesome place to be for it has so many amazing, beautiful angel animals there. My beloved Gibson is there. As is my Chelsey, Sandy, kitty Smokie, bunny Sunny, my fox Ah, many horses, and so many others pets. We have many furfriends who have also crossed The Rainbow Bridge. All of these beloved animals are there...so healthy and happy, with all the dogs enjoying their zoomies and playing Fetch all day in a land that is eternally beautiful. Sounds perfect. Only catch is when our devoted companions are there, we can no longer physically be with them. So while they are in a place where the spirit soars, our hearts are broken as we are missing them here with us. It is a hurt we all as pet parents now way too well.  And today, as unbelievable as it seems as I write this, we have to bid a final farewell to another dear furpal, Buddy, the Christmas Husky , who has now earned h...

Fit For Our #FiveSibes Alpha Queen: Celebrating Harley's 14½ Birthday

Image
Born on March 10, 2005, our beautiful alpha queen, pupster surrogate momma, and my daughter's and our first Siberian Husky,  turns 14½ today! You may be wondering why are we celebrating her half birthday? Because, as heartbreaking as it is, we now know she will not be here in March to celebrate her 15th Birthday as I once had hoped. Heartfelt thanks to Ann at Zoolatry for this beautiful badge. Thank you all who are sharing it and joining paws for our girl. As amazing and strong as our queen has been, and how proud I have been of how she still could outrun Pupsters Wolf and Bandit, still splash in her pool like a puppy, tear up a dog bed like there's no tomorrow, and chase her tail until the sun sets, our beloved Husky leader has also been dealing with health issues that we have been treating, but are now slowing her down and, heartbreakingly we are preparing ourselves for her journey, that we as pet parents all dread, to the Rainbow Bridge.  “Dogs' lives a...
